Interview with Ben Hermans from Hyperion : Comment 70 of 194 | ANN.lu |
Posted by Christophe Decanini on 08-Nov-2001 12:27 GMT | In reply to Comment 4 (Brecht [darklite]): >>New OS on new hardware platform with new innovative applications (at an affordable price).
>That combination is impossible. Either it's mainstream and cheap or it's PPC/new and it's expensive.
No it can be in beetween (it has to be)
>1) most Amiga users already own/use a Windows PC. (Christian: poll please? :)
Which one use an Amiga and a PC and whcih one use a PC to run AmigaOS ?
On these last users how many contribute ($$$) to commercial developments ?
>2) There are also other OS's available on PPC: Linux, BSD, MacOS (partial >emulation).
Linux on PPC has not has much application as the current AmigaOS.
BSD is more server oriented.
3) New PPC CPU's can emulate PC's at full speed, so basically, PPC will also run Windows.
But it won't be installed on every machine. |
